Sulfide mineral dissolution microbes: Community structure and function in industrial bioleaching heaps

open access: yesGreen Energy & Environment, 2019
Heap bioleaching is one of the most clean and economical processes for recovery of low-grade and complex ores, because the sulfide minerals are natural habitats for acidophiles capable of iron- and sulfur-oxidation.

A 36 ka environmental record in the southern tropics : Lake Tritrivakely (Madgascar) (Un enregistrement de l'environnement depuis 36 ka en zone tropicale sud : le lac Tritrivakely (Madagascar)). [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The upper 13 m of a 40 m-long sedimentary profile core taken in a crater lake on the Malagasy Plateau reveals 36,000 yrs of hydroclimatic evolution. A shallow lake occupies the core site from ≃35 to ≃19 ka BP under climatic conditions cooler than today ...

A Thermophilic and Unusually Acidophilic Amylase Produced by a Thermophilic AcidophilicBacillussp. [PDF]

open access: yesAgricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1982
Bacillus sp. 11-1S, a thermophilic acidophilic bacterial strain, produced an extracellular amylase with unusual characteristics. The enzyme was purified 40-fold by SE-Sephadex column chromatography. The pH optimum for activity was 2.0, and substantial activity was noted in the pH range of 1.5 ~ 3.5.
